The Turtle Mountain bands.

WASHINGTON, April 22.-It is said at
the interior department that the order of
the secretary directing the commissioner of
the general land Office to approve of the
contract of one Green for the survey of a
portion of the Turtle mountain Indian
reservation, if found to be regular, and to
order its performance, practically settled
the question of the right of settlers to about
1000, 900 acres of land now claimed by the
Chippewas. This band now numbers less
than 500 souls. and it was their claim
which Commissioner Sparks held should be
settled before surveys could be proceeded
with. Secretary Lamar is of the opinion
that the claim of this small band is too
vague to warrant ousting the 20, 600 settlers
who have located OH the lands, or to pre-
vent Others from settling thereon; that if
they had valid claim congress should be
called upon to settle it. While Green's
contract covers surveys of only a very small
portion of the reservation. the secretary is
of opinion that other contracts should be
entered in as fast as congressional appro-
priatiOns therefor will warrant.

THE STATE OF TRADE.
The Usual Weekly Review of the
Condition Of Business Affairs.

NEW YORK, April OR. g. Dun &
Co.'s weekly review of trade says: Un
usual weather hinders trade. Extensive
SHOWS late in April, with strips and
patches of snow still on the ground around
New York, account for not little embar-
rassment in various branches of business.
The outlook in dry goods is, especially
affected by unreasonable weather, which
adds to the apparent depression caused by
unwonted purchases of stocks last month
in order to anticipate changes of rates.
The market for woolens drags and is un-
satisfactory, and while cotton staples are
firm print cloths are weaker. Raw cotton
does not advance, though receipts are small
and wool has been weak, though hope is
expressed that the bottom has been touched.
Iron is dull at Philadelphia, with prices of
some grades marked down there, and at
Pittsburg bar is lower and the en-
tire market feverish, with symptoms
of weakness. Wheat is held by a
reported corner, but has scarcely advanced
shade. Pork products are little weaker
and oil is dull. Coffee has been suddenly
advanced cent by speculative methods.
Leather is in better demand, boot and shoe
orders having decidedly improved. The
rubber market is excited. Stocks have
turned downward with all average decline
for the week of half a dollar per share
For much of the embarrassment thechanges
in rail rates under the interstate act are re-
sponsible. Many think as the commission
apparently does that the railroads have
made the law an excuse for unnecessary ad-
vance in rates, but the broad fact remains
that great part of the business of the
country has been built up under a system
of special rates to encourage especial local.
tiles of trades. The chief intent of the act
is to prohibit such special favors An
inevitable result is that the industries
and business of great number of places
are disturbed. Foreign and interior
trade continues fairly active. Exports
from New York show an increase of II per
cent. over last year, but are declining,
against an increase of TX per cent. in i'm
ports, with an advancing tendency. At
some Southern points business is SO dull
that country merchants in unusual number
are asking extensions, but collections gen.
orally are fairly prompt. Money would be
everywhere abundant but for extraordinary
demands in real estate speculation and
building. At New York alone plans filed
in three months call for an expenditure of
S22. 10000 in building, and mortgages
amount to $50. 600, 600 for the quarter. At
the same rate throughout the country new
mortgages wonld aggregate SO, 600. 600, 600,
and new buildings would cost 81, 400, OOO.-
000., 1t is not strange, therefore that any
industry of the county is felt. The busi-
ness failures during the past seven days
